Title: Microsoft acquires Playground games, Undead Labs, Compulsion games, Ninja Theory for first party
Reason: User Warned: System Wars - If you’re going to discuss this, refer to Microsoft’s own history, not how it compares to Sony’s
I went off online articles. They were studios that got the axe. Plenty more show a trend just as you said run into the ground or just trash production under MS. I'd fully expect rush jobs out of these newly aquired studios. And yes 10 years is fairly recent in a business. Sony has shut studios down yes. They have shifted reources closed for strategic reasons but at least they were productive in some ways prior. Some worked on multiple franchises before closing shop or moving.
